If MMT does not document in the Business Plan [***]the Product in the Field in a country in the Territory (“[***]”) for a period of either (i) [***] calendar months after the Effective Date for Tier 1 Countries, (ii) [***] calendar months after the Effective Date for Tier 2 Countries or (iii) [***] calendar months after the Effective Date for Tier 3 Countries (each such time period set forth in (i)-(iii) being a “Tier Period”), then no later than [***] Business Days after the expiration the applicable Tier Period for such country, SIGA may provide MMT with written notice [***] non-[***] (a “Non-[***] Notice”) in such country, and upon MMT’s receipt of such Non-[***] Notice, such country shall be deemed to be a “Discontinued Country” for purposes of this Agreement. If [***], SIGA shall have the right to designate the applicable country as a Discontinued Country at any time thereafter as long as the relevant Tier Period [***] for the country has been met at the time of the Non-[***] Notice. SIGA hereby acknowledges and agrees that MMT and its Affiliates make (and have made) no representation or warranty, either express or implied, at law or in equity, that it will be able to successfully achieve any amount of Net Product Sales Amount, and SIGA specifically disclaims that it is relying upon or has relied upon any such representations or warranties that may have been made by any individual or entity. SIGA acknowledges and agrees that MMT and its Affiliates have, and will continue to have, other programs that may compete for resources that may be expended in the Promotion of the Product. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 2.3 with respect to Competing Products, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the right of MMT or its Affiliates to develop, make regulatory filings, obtain regulatory approvals with respect to, or to Commercialize any product that is not the Product or, with respect to MMT only, a Competing Product or to engage in any business or other activity.

MMT may choose not to disclose communications, other than communications from Regulatory Authorities, to the extent that MMT’s counsel reasonably believes that such disclosure to SIGA could violate applicable privacy laws or have a significant adverse impact on MMT’s legal position or defense (including the loss of attorney-client privilege), in which case MMT shall promptly notify SIGA that it is exercising its right not to disclose.

4.5 Discontinued Countries. For clarity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon the designation of a country as a “Discontinued Country” under this Agreement, SIGA shall have the right to Promote the Product in the Discontinued Country at its sole discretion and cost.

PAYMENTS

6.1 Promotion Fee.

(a) In consideration for the services provided by MMT hereunder, commencing with the First Commercial Sale of the Product in the Territory, MMT shall be entitled to retain a fee (the “Promotion Fee”) of:

(i) [***] of the Yearly Collected Revenue of the Product in the Territory in each Calendar Year during the Term if the aggregate Net Product Sales Amounts for such Calendar Year are equal to or below [***]; and

(ii) [***] of the Yearly Collected Revenue of the Product in the Territory in each Calendar Year during the Term if the aggregate Net Product Sales Amounts for such Calendar Year exceed [***].

(b) In satisfaction of MMT’s rights to the Promotion Fee, MMT shall retain from each payment to SIGA of the Quarterly Collected Revenue an amount equal to (i) [***] of the Quarterly Collected Revenue in the Territory during such Calendar Quarter so long as the total Net Product Sales Amounts in the Territory during the relevant Calendar Year are equal to or below [***] and (ii) [***] of the Quarterly Collected Revenue in the Territory during such Calendar Quarter where the total Net Product Sales Amounts in the Territory during the relevant Calendar Year exceeds [***] and (iii) any Credit Amounts. If the Net Product Sales Amounts in the Territory exceeds [***] during any Calendar Year after any Quarterly Payment has been made, MMT shall automatically accrue a credit of [***] (the “Credit Amount”) (representing the additional [***] fee that MMT would be entitled to receive with respect to the first [***] of the Quarterly Collected Revenue as a result of total Net Product Sales Amounts in the relevant Calendar Year having [***]), which Credit Amount will be deducted from future payments of Quarterly Collected Revenue to SIGA until the full Credit Amount is retained by MMT.

6.2 Payments.

(a) Within [***] days after the conclusion of each Calendar Quarter to occur during the Term, commencing with the First Commercial Sale of the Product in the Field in the Territory, MMT shall deliver to SIGA a written report containing the following information (each a “Quarterly Report”): [***]. All such reports shall be considered Confidential Information of MMT. Concurrent with the delivery of the applicable Quarterly Report, MMT shall pay to SIGA in Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account designated by SIGA in writing in advance of such payment the net result of Quarterly Collected Revenues, minus the corresponding Promotion Fee, and minus any applicable Credit Amount for such Calendar Quarter (all amounts as calculated in the Quarterly Report, and the payment of the net result being a “Quarterly Payment”).

(b) Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, MMT shall submit a final written report covering the time period between the date of the last Quarterly Report submitted by MMT and the date of expiration or termination of this Agreement (the “Final Report”). The Final Report shall contain all information required to be included in a Quarterly Report with respect to the time period between the conclusion of the most recent Calendar Quarter and the date of expiration or termination of this Agreement. If MMT owes any outstanding amounts to SIGA as calculated pursuant to such Final Report, then MMT shall pay to SIGA in Dollars such outstanding amounts by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account designated by SIGA in writing in advance of such payment within [***] days after delivery of the Final Report. If SIGA owes any amounts relating to any portion of any outstanding Credit Amounts or otherwise, then SIGA shall pay such outstanding amounts to MMT within [***] days after delivery of the Final Report.

6.3 Currency. All sums due under this Agreement shall be payable in Dollars. Any amounts in currencies other than Dollars shall, for purposes of determining Net Product Sales Amounts or Quarterly Collected Revenue, be converted to Dollars using the [***]. Once the Net Product Sales Amount or Quarterly Collected Revenue payable in respect of a particular Calendar Quarter has been converted into Dollars, such amount of Dollars shall be used for the purpose of calculating the total Net Product Sales Amount and Quarterly Collected Revenue during the Calendar Year that includes such Calendar Quarter.

6.4 Records. MMT will keep (and will ensure that its Affiliates and sublicensees keep) such records as are required to determine, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles or international financial reporting standards, as applicable, and this Agreement and the sums or credits due under this Agreement, including Net Product Sales Amounts. MMT will retain all such books, records and accounts until the later of (a) [***] after the end of the period to which such books, records and accounts pertain and (b) the expiration of the applicable tax statute of limitations (or any extensions thereof), or for such longer period as may be required by Laws. MMT will require its sublicensees to provide to it a report detailing the foregoing expenses and calculations incurred or made by such sublicensee, which report will be made available to SIGA in connection with any audit conducted by SIGA pursuant to Section 6.5.

6.5 Audits. SIGA may have an independent top four certified public accountant, reasonably acceptable to MMT (“SIGA’s Auditor”), have access during normal business hours, and upon [***] Business Days’ prior written notice, to examine only those records of MMT (and its Affiliates and sublicensees) as may be reasonably necessary to determine, with respect to any Calendar Year ending not more than [***] before SIGA’s request, the correctness or completeness of any report or payment made under this Agreement; provided, however, MMT shall not be required to provide, and neither SIGA nor SIGA’s Auditor shall be entitled to review, the tax returns or tax records of MMT or those of its Affiliates and sublicensees. The foregoing right of review may be exercised only once per year and only once with respect to each periodic report and payment delivered in accordance with Section 6.2. Reports of the results of any such examination (each an “Audit Report”) will be (a) limited to details of any discrepancies in MMT’s records relating to the Product together with an explanation of the discrepancy and the circumstances giving rise to the discrepancy (b) made available to both Parties and (c) subject to ARTICLE 10. An Audit Report shall become final and binding on the Parties thirty (30) days following MMT’s receipt thereof, unless MMT delivers written notice of its agreement thereto (in which case such Audit Report shall become final and binding on the date of delivery of such notice of agreement) or written notice of its disagreement thereto (“Notice of Disagreement”) to SIGA in either case on or prior to such date. If a timely Notice of Disagreement is delivered by MMT to SIGA, then the Audit Report shall become final and binding on the Parties on the earlier of (i) the date MMT and SIGA resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement, and (ii) the date all matters in dispute are finally resolved in writing by the Independent Auditor. During the thirty (30) days following delivery of a Notice of Disagreement, MMT, SIGA and SIGA’s Auditor shall seek to resolve in writing any differences which they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement. At the end of such thirty (30) day period, if no resolution has been reached, MMT and SIGA shall submit such dispute to an independent top four certified public accountant other than SIGA’s Auditor and reasonably acceptable to both Parties (the “Independent Auditor”) for resolution of all matters which remain in dispute which were included in the Notice of Disagreement, and the Independent Auditor shall make a final determination with respect thereto (with it being understood that the Parties will request that the Independent Auditor deliver to the Parties its resolution in writing not more than 30 days after its engagement). The Independent Auditor shall make a determination only with respect to the matters still in dispute and, with respect to each such matter, its determination shall be within the range of the dispute among MMT, SIGA and SIGA’s Auditor. If an Audit Report as finally determined pursuant to this Section 6.5 (a “Final Audit Report”) concludes that (i) additional amounts were owed by MMT, MMT will pay the additional amounts, or (ii) excess payments were made by MMT, SIGA will reimburse such excess payments, in either case ((i) or (ii)), within thirty (30) Business Days after the date on which an Audit Report is deemed a Final Audit Report. SIGA will bear the full cost of the performance of any such audit, including the fees of SIGA’s Auditor and the Independent Auditor, unless a Final Audit Report, which covers the entire Calendar Year, discloses a variance to the detriment of the auditing Party of more than [***] from the amount of the original report, royalty or payment calculation, in which case MMT will bear the full cost of the performance of such audit. The results of such audit, including any determination made by the Independent Auditor, will be final, absent manifest error.

6.6 Blocked Payment and Indemnification. If either Party utilizes a Restricted Party in the activities contemplated under this Agreement, without a license or other authorization required by Global Trade Control Laws or in circumstances where reimbursement by the non-utilizing Party would violate or create exposure to adverse consequences under Global Trade Laws, the non-utilizing Party shall not be responsible for any payments due to the utilizing Party or any other party resulting from the activities involving such Restricted Party even if the contractual obligation related thereto has already accrued. Any and all payments due to such utilizing Party or any other party resulting from such activity involving a Restricted Party shall be entirely at such utilizing Party’s expense. Further, if the conduct of any activity or a transaction under this Agreement was in violation of applicable Global Trade Control Laws for any reason, such violating Party shall indemnify the other Party for any liability resulting from such activity or transaction, including any and all fines and penalties assessed to such other Party as a result of such activity or transaction.

6.7 Source of Recovery. Any outstanding amounts due and payable by SIGA pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including reimbursements for Supply Penalties pursuant to Section 5.5 and any amounts owed to an MMT Indemnitee pursuant to SIGA’s indemnification obligations in Section 9.1, at MMT’s option, can be set-off by MMT from any Quarterly Payment until such amounts are fully recovered; provided that any amounts that are subject to a dispute properly brought under ARTICLE 12 may not be set-off pursuant to this Section 6.7.

6.8 Taxes.

(a) Taxes on Income. Each Party will pay all taxes (including related interest and penalties) imposed on its share of income arising directly or indirectly from the efforts of, or the receipt or deemed receipt of any payment by, such Party under this Agreement.

(b) Tax Withholding. Subject to Section 6.8(c) and Section 6.8(d), if any taxes (including related interest and penalties) are required to be withheld by or on behalf of MMT with respect to an amount payable to SIGA, (a) MMT will withhold such taxes from such amount, timely pay the withheld taxes to the proper taxing authority and furnish reasonably satisfactory proof of payment to SIGA; and (b) SIGA will reasonably assist MMT in its efforts to obtain a refund of or credit for such withholding tax in accordance with Section 6.8(c). Any amount actually withheld and remitted by MMT to a taxing authority pursuant to this Section 6.8(b) will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to SIGA. If MMT makes a payment without deduction for tax withholding and an amount of tax should have been withheld from such payment, MMT shall be entitled to recover the under withheld tax by an additional withholding from any amount payable to SIGA under this Agreement, and to the extent such recovery is insufficient, SIGA shall indemnify MMT for any such amount. No amount shall be withheld, or a reduced amount shall be withheld, as applicable, if, in accordance with Section 6.8(d), a Party that is entitled to a payment timely furnishes the other Party with the necessary tax forms and other documents prescribed by Laws, which shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Party receiving the documents, identifying that the relevant payment is exempt from tax or subject to a reduced tax rate.

(c) VAT. It is understood and agreed between the Parties that the amount of any payments contemplated under this Agreement are exclusive of any value added tax, sales tax or any similar tax (“VAT”), which shall be added thereon as applicable. Where VAT is properly added to a payment made under this Agreement, MMT or SIGA, as applicable, will pay the amount of the VAT, if applicable, but only on receipt of a valid tax invoice issued in accordance with applicable Law of the country in which the VAT is chargeable.

(d) Tax Cooperation. The Parties agree to cooperate with one another and use reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate tax withholding, VAT or similar obligations in respect of royalties, milestone payments, and other amounts payable under this Agreement. SIGA and MMT will provide each other with any applicable tax forms that may be reasonably necessary in order for the other Party not to withhold tax or to withhold tax at a reduced rate under an applicable income tax treaty or pursuant to applicable internal law. Each Party will provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by Law, of withholding taxes, VAT, or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of MMT or SIGA, as applicable, to the extent it has complied with the requirements of this Section 6.8 in respect of such obligations.

For clarity, any new Patent or Trademark filed and/or registered, as applicable, by SIGA, pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be deemed a SIGA Patent or a SIGA Trademark, respectively, and shall be subject to the grant of rights to MMT set forth in Section 2.1. SIGA’s obligation to make the filings described in the first sentence of this Section 7.3 shall not apply with respect to an Active Country if the Product is sold in such Active Country pursuant to a Special Access Approval or other Regulatory Approval, without the need to file for SIGA Patents or SIGA Trademarks in such country.

The foregoing indemnity obligation will not apply (i) to the extent that (x) the MMT Indemnitees fail to comply with the indemnification procedures set forth in Section 9.3 and SIGA’s defense of the relevant Claims is prejudiced by such failure or (y) such Claims arise out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of MMT or its Affiliates or the officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives of MMT or its Affiliates, or breach by MMT of its representations, warranties or covenants or any other obligation of MMT hereunder; or (ii) to Claims for which MMT has an obligation to indemnify SIGA pursuant to Section 9.2, as to which Claims each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of its respective liability for such Claims, provided, for clarity, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.2(a) or (b), SIGA shall in all cases be solely responsible for any Claims relating to matters described in Section 9.1(c) and (e).

9.2 Indemnification by MMT. MMT will, at its sole expense, defend, indemnify, and hold SIGA and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, shareholders. owners, employees, agents and representatives (the “SIGA Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all Losses to the extent arising out of or resulting from any Claims arising from or occurring as a result of (a) the breach of any of MMT’s obligations under this Agreement, including MMT’s representations and warranties, covenants and other agreements, (b) subject to Section 9.1(e) any breach by MMT under any Customer Contract, including MMT’s representations and warranties, covenants and other agreements, or the failure to comply with this Agreement, or (c) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of MMT, its Affiliates, or the officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives of MMT or its Affiliates in connection with performance by or on behalf of MMT of MMT’s obligations or exercise of MMT’s rights under this Agreement.

9.3 Indemnification Procedures. The Party claiming indemnity under this ARTICLE 9 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice to the Party from whom indemnity is being sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after becoming aware of a Claim for which indemnity may be sought hereunder (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure by an Indemnified Party to give notice of a Claim for which indemnity may be sought as provided in this Section 9.3 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice). The Indemnified Party will provide the Indemnifying Party with reasonable assistance, at the Indemnifying Party’s reasonable expense, in connection with the defense of the Claim for which indemnity is being sought. The Indemnified Party may participate in and monitor such defense with counsel of its own choosing at its sole expense; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall assume and conduct the defense of the Claim and may so defend any such Claim with counsel of its choosing. The Indemnifying Party will not settle any Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, unless the settlement involves only the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party. So long as the Indemnifying Party is actively defending the Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party will not settle or compromise any such Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume and conduct the defense of the Claim as provided above, (a) the Indemnified Party may defend against, consent to the entry of any judgment, or enter into any settlement with respect to such Claim in any manner the Indemnified Party may deem reasonably appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), and (b) the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible to indemnify the Indemnified Party as provided in this ARTICLE 9. The assumption of the defense by the Indemnifying Party will not be construed as an acknowledgment that the Indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Claim, nor will it constitute a waiver by the Indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification.

9.4 Insurance. MMT and SIGA shall each, at their sole cost and expense, procure and maintain (a) commercial general liability insurance in amounts not less than $[***] per incident and $[***] annual aggregate, and (c) product liability insurance in amounts not less than $[***] annual aggregate, and each naming the other Party as additional insured. MMT and SIGA shall maintain such insurance throughout the Term, and shall from time to time provide copies of certificates of such insurance the other Party upon request.

(a) such disclosure is reasonably necessary (i) for the filing or prosecuting of Patent or Trademark rights as contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) to comply with the requirements of Regulatory Authorities with respect to obtaining and maintaining Regulatory Approval of Product; or (iii) for prosecuting or defending litigation as contemplated by this Agreement;

(b) such disclosure is reasonably necessary to its officers, directors, employees, agents, consultants, contractors, licensees, sublicensees, attorneys, accountants, lenders, insurers, shareholders, or licensors on a need-to-know basis for the sole purpose of performing its obligations or exercising its rights under this Agreement; provided that in each case, the disclosees are bound by obligations of confidentiality and non-use no less stringent than those contained in this Agreement;

(c) such disclosure is reasonably necessary to any bona fide potential or actual investor, acquiror, merger partner, or other financial or commercial partner for the sole purpose of evaluating an actual or potential investment, acquisition or other business relationship with the disclosing Party; provided that in each case, the disclosees are bound by written obligations of confidentiality and non-use having a minimum term of two (2) years; or

(d) such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with Laws, including regulations promulgated by applicable security exchanges, court order, administrative subpoena or other order.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either Party or any of its respective Affiliates is required to make a disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to Section 10.2(a) or 10.2(d), such Party will promptly notify the other Party of such required disclosure and, upon the other Party’s request, such Party and its Affiliates will use reasonable efforts to obtain, or to assist the other Party in obtaining, a protective order preventing or limiting the required disclosure at the non-disclosing Party’s sole cost.

10.3 Technical Publication. Upon request, SIGA will provide to MMT publications, and other forms of public disclosure such as abstracts and presentations, of results of studies carried out to the extent they relate to the Product and are not protected by a confidentiality agreement with a Third Party, in each case, as soon as reasonably practicable after such disclosure.

A Party commenting on such a proposed announcement will provide its comments, if any, within five (5) Business Days after receiving the announcement for review, or such shorter period as may be reasonably required in order for the proposing Party to comply with any applicable deadline for making such announcement (as such deadline is communicated by the proposing Party to the commenting Party). In addition, where required by Laws or sought by either Party, including regulations promulgated by applicable security exchanges, such Party or its Affiliates may make a press release announcing the achievements of any material event with respect to this Agreement or the Parties’ performance thereof, subject only to the review procedure set forth in the preceding sentence; provided that the review period will be reduced to two (2) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be reasonably required in order for the proposing Party to comply with any applicable deadline for making such press release, as such deadline is communicated by the proposing Party to the commenting Party) if the deadline for making such disclosure is five (5) or fewer Business Days after such achievement or event. In relation to the other Party’s review of such an announcement, such other Party may make specific, reasonable comments on such proposed press release within the prescribed time for commentary, but will not withhold, condition, or delay its consent to disclosure of the information. Neither Party nor their respective Affiliates are required to seek the permission of the other Party to repeat any information regarding the terms of this Agreement that has already been publicly disclosed by such Party or its Affiliate, or by the other Party or its Affiliate, in accordance with this Section 10.4, if such information remains accurate as of such time.

(d) The Parties acknowledge that either or both Parties may be obligated to file under Laws a copy of this Agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or other Governmental Authorities.

10.5 Prior Confidentiality Agreements. Any prior confidentiality agreements between the Parties are hereby superseded by this Agreement. Additionally, all information disclosed by a Party or its Affiliates to the other Party or its Affiliates pursuant to any prior confidentiality agreements shall be deemed to be such Party’s Confidential Information disclosed hereunder and the confidentiality, non-use and non-disclosure obligations set forth in this ARTICLE 10 will apply to the receiving Party, its Affiliates and disclosees. If any such obligations conflict with the obligations set forth in any prior confidentiality agreements, then the receiving Party, its Affiliates and disclosees will comply with the more stringent obligations.

10.6 Return of Confidential Information. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, upon termination of this Agreement, the receiving Party shall promptly return, or upon request of the disclosing party destroy and provide written certification of such destruction, all of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, including all reproductions and copies thereof in any medium, except that the receiving Party may retain a reasonable number of archival copies as may be required by Law or its reasonable standard document retention policies.

10.7 Unauthorized Use. If either Party becomes aware or has knowledge of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information, it will promptly notify the other Party in writing of such unauthorized use or disclosure.

This Agreement, including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto, together with the confidentiality agreements referenced in Section 10.5, and any other documents delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, sets forth the complete, final and exclusive agreement and all the covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties hereto and thereto and their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes, as of the Effective Date, all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. There are no covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions or understandings, either oral or written, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement other than as are set forth in this Agreement. No subsequent alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Agreement will be binding upon the Parties unless reduced to writing and signed by an authorized officer of each Party.

13.2 Force Majeure. Both Parties will be excused from the performance of their obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such performance is prevented by force majeure and the non-performing Party promptly provides notice of the prevention to the other Party. Such excuse will continue for so long as the condition constituting force majeure continues and the non-performing Party takes reasonable efforts to remove the condition. For purposes of this Agreement, force majeure includes conditions beyond the control of the Parties, including an act of God, war, civil commotion, terrorist act, epidemic, failure or default of public utilities or common carriers, destruction of production facilities or materials by fire, earthquake, and storm or like catastrophe. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party will not be excused from making payments owed hereunder because of a force majeure affecting such Party. If a force majeure persists for more than sixty (60) days, then the Parties will discuss in good faith the modification of the Parties’ obligations under this Agreement to mitigate the delays caused by such force majeure.

13.3 Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement will be in writing, will specifically refer to this Agreement, and will be addressed to the appropriate Party at the address specified below or such other address as may be specified by such Party in writing in accordance with this Section 13.3, and will be deemed to have been given for all purposes (a) when received, if hand-delivered or sent by email with non-automated confirmed read receipt or a reputable courier service, or (b) five (5) Business Days after mailing, if mailed by first class certified or registered airmail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested.

13.4 No Strict Construction; Interpretation; Headings. The language in this Agreement is to be construed in all cases according to its fair meaning. Except where the context otherwise requires, wherever used, the singular includes the plural, the plural the singular, the use of any gender applies to all genders. The word “or” is used in the disjunctive sense and the word “and” is used in the conjunctive sense. The captions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and in no way define, describe, extend, or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or the intent of any provision contained in this Agreement. The term “including,” “include,” or “includes”, whether or not followed by “without limitation” or “including, but not limited to,” or words of similar import, shall be construed to mean in each case including, without limiting the generality of any description preceding such term. The Parties agree that no meaning should be inferred about the use of “without limitation” or “including, but not limited to” in some instances but not others. Unless the context requires otherwise, (i) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document will be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein or therein), (ii) any reference to any Laws will be construed as referring to such Laws as from time to time enacted, repealed or amended, (iii) any reference to any Person will be construed to include the Person’s successors and permitted assigns, (iv) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, will be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (v) any reference to the words “mutually agree” or “mutual written agreement” will not impose any obligation on either Party to agree to any terms relating thereto or to engage in discussions relating to such terms except as such Party may determine in such Party’s sole discretion, (vi) all references to Sections, Exhibits or Schedules will be construed to refer to Sections, Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement, (vii) the word “days” means calendar days and the word “month” means calendar month unless otherwise specified, (viii) the words “copy” and “copies” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement include, to the extent available, electronic copies, files or databases containing the information, files, items, documents or materials to which such words apply, and (ix) any reference “dollar”, “dollars” or “$” will be construed to refer to U.S. dollars. The headings of each Article and Section in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to limit or expand on the meaning of the language contained in the particular Article or Section. Each Party represents that it has been represented by legal counsel in connection with this Agreement and acknowledges that it has participated in the drafting hereof. In interpreting and applying the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Parties agree that no presumption will apply against the Party which drafted such terms and provisions.

13.5 Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that a Party may make such an assignment without the other Party’s consent to its Affiliates or to a Third Party successor of, or transferee to, assets of such Party to which this Agreement relates, whether in a merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or other transaction. Any successor or assignee of rights or obligations permitted hereunder will, in writing to the other Party, expressly assume performance of such rights or obligations. Any permitted assignment will be binding on the successors of the assigning Party. Any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party in violation of the terms of this Section 13.5 is null, void and of no legal effect.

13.6 Performance by Affiliates. Subject to Section 2.1(b), each Party may discharge any obligations and exercise any right hereunder through any of its Affiliates. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and will cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement is a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any obligation to first proceed against such Party’s Affiliate.

13.7 Further Assurances and Actions. Each Party, upon the request of the other Party, whether made before or after the Effective Date and without further consideration, will do, execute, acknowledge, and deliver or cause to be done, executed, acknowledged or delivered all such further acts, deeds, documents, assignments, transfers, conveyances, powers of attorney, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably necessary to effect complete consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to do all such other acts, as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement. The Parties agree to execute and deliver such other documents, certificates, agreements and other writings and to take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate or implement expeditiously the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

13.8 Severability. Each of the provisions contained in this Agreement will be severable, and the unenforceability of one will not affect the enforceability of any others or of the remainder of this Agreement. If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the Parties will negotiate in good faith with a view to the substitution therefor of a suitable and equitable solution to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid provision; provided, however, that the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be in any way impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the Parties hereto will be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

13.9 No Waiver. Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver will be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition. The waiver, delay or the failure of any Party to enforce or exercise any term, condition or part of this Agreement at any time or in any one or more instances will not be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other term, condition or part, nor will it forfeit any rights, power or privilege to future enforcement thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by Law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one Party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other Party; (b) no waiver that may be given by a Party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one Party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that Party or of the right of the Party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, all rights and remedies available to a Party, whether under this Agreement or afforded by Law or otherwise, will be cumulative and not in the alternative to any other rights or remedies that may be available to such Party.

13.10 Relationship of the Parties. Neither Party will have any responsibility for the hiring, termination or compensation of the other Party’s employees or for any employee benefits of such employee. No employee or representative of a Party will have any authority to bind or obligate the other Party to this Agreement for any sum or in any manner whatsoever, or to create or impose any contractual or other liability on the other Party without said Party’s approval. For all purposes, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, SIGA’s legal relationship to MMT under this Agreement will be that of independent contractor and nothing in this Agreement gives either Party the power or authority to act for, bind, or commit the other Party in any way. This Agreement is not a partnership agreement. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed to establish a relationship of partners, principal and agent or joint venturers between the Parties or their respective employees or Affiliates. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to create a “separate entity” or “business entity” within the meaning of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code or the regulations thereunder and any foreign equivalents thereto. Neither MMT nor SIGA will make any statements, representations, or commitments of any kind, or to take any action that is binding on the other, without the prior consent of the other Party to do so.

13.11 English Language. This Agreement was prepared in the English language, which language governs the interpretation of, and any dispute regarding, the terms of this Agreement.

13.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which is an original, but all of which together constitute one and the same instrument. Each Party may execute this Agreement by facsimile transmission or by PDF. In addition, facsimile or PDF signatures of authorized signatories of any Party will be deemed to be original signatures and will be valid and binding, and delivery of a facsimile or PDF signature by any Party will constitute due execution and delivery of this Agreement.

13.13 Schedules. The disclosure of any matter in any Section of or on any Schedule to this Agreement will only be deemed to be a disclosure for the Section or subsection of this Agreement to which it corresponds in number, unless the applicability of such Schedule to any other Section is readily apparent. The disclosure of any matter in any Schedule to this Agreement will expressly not be deemed to (a) constitute an admission by either Party hereto, or (b) imply that any such matter is material for purposes of this Agreement.

13.14 Expenses. Each of the Parties will bear its own direct and indirect expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and, except as set forth in this Agreement, the performance of the obligations contemplated hereby and thereby.

SCHEDULE 3

Safety Reporting Requirements

Safety Reporting Requirements for the Product

Scope:

SIGA has a legal and corporate responsibility to comply with applicable regulations governing the collection and reporting of adverse events (“AE(s)”), at risk scenarios (“ARSs”), unexpected therapeutic effects (“UTEs”), and product quality complaints (“PQC(s)”) associated with the Product, as these terms are defined below. For the purposes of this Exhibit, AEs, ARSs, UTEs, and PQCs are collectively termed “Safety Reports.”

MMT is expressly entitled to perform any regulatory responsibilities for the Product through any of its Affiliates. MMT or an Affiliate of MMT shall exchange Safety Reports with the SIGA contact listed in section 4.1 Reporting Time-Frames. Throughout this Safety Reporting Exhibit, SIGA shall be referred to as “SIGA” and MMT and its Affiliates collectively as “Promoter.” At all times SIGA and Promoter shall follow the procedures set out below.

The procedures described in this Agreement are to be followed for pharmacovigilance activities for the Product, irrespective of any other activities between SIGA and Promoter which are contained within the Agreement.

2.	Definitions:

2.1.

Adverse event (AE): an AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient administered the Product. The event need not have a causal relationship with the treatment or usage. This includes, but is not limited to:

•

Abnormal test findings

•

Clinically significant symptoms and signs

•

Changes in physical examination findings

•

Hypersensitivity

•

Progression/worsening of underlying disease

•

Lack of drug efficacy

•

Drug abuse

•

Drug dependency

•

Signs and symptoms resulting from drug withdrawal and drug interactions

•

Suspected transmission of an infectious agent via a medicinal product

2.2.

At risk scenarios (ARSs): circumstances where the report does not include an AE per se, but nevertheless needs to be reported to SIGA. These circumstances include:

•

Medication errors (including incorrect prescription or dispensing of a prescription, whether or not administered to the patient)

•

Exposure during pregnancy

•

Exposure during breastfeeding

•

Overdose

•

Extravasation

•

Occupational exposure

•

Off-label use

2.3.

Unexpected therapeutic effect (UTEs): a beneficial therapeutic effect of the Product aside from the use for which it had been given.

2.4.

Product quality complaint (PQC(s)): is any written or oral expression of dissatisfaction relative to the physical properties, condition, labelling, potency and/or packaging of the Product, including whether the Product is suspected or confirmed to be counterfeit.

3.	Promoter Responsibilities:

3.1.

Promoter shall ensure that all employees and, if applicable, subcontractor employees performing activities under this Agreement (“Promoter Personnel”) who may become aware of a Safety Report associated with the use of the Product comply with the requirements set out in this Exhibit.

3.2.

If Promoter Personnel become aware of a Safety Report that may be associated with the Product, Promoter shall inform SIGA in accordance with the reporting procedures included in this Exhibit and as may be updated and provided to Promoter in the future by SIGA.

3.3.

In the event Promoter engages a subcontractor to perform services related to this Agreement, Promoter shall request fulfilment by that subcontractor of these safety reporting requirements on substantially the same terms as those outlined in this Exhibit, unless it is established that there is no possibility that the subcontracted services will involve receipt or handling of Safety Reports by the subcontractor.

3.4.

In the event that Promoter receives a communication from a Regulatory Authority relating to the Product, Promoter shall inform SIGA as soon as possible, but in any event no later than one (1) Business Day or three (3) calendar days of receipt, whichever is shorter. Where possible, SIGA shall be informed prior to, and have the opportunity to review, any response to the regulatory authority by Promoter.

4.	Reporting Process:

4.1.

Reporting Time-Frames: Promoter shall report all Safety Reports to SIGA within two (2) Business Days or four (4) calendar days of awareness, whichever is shorter. All reports shall be sent to:

Drug Safety Unit -
Contact Details: Regulatory Affairs, SIGA Technologies
E-mail:	xxxxxxxxxx@xxxx.xxx
Telephone:	000-000-0000
Fax:	000-000-0000
Postal Address:	SIGA Technologies, Inc. 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxx, XX 00000

4.2.

Case Receipt Confirmation: The receipt of Safety Reports from Promoter shall be acknowledged by SIGA in writing no later than one (1) Business Day following receipt. If acknowledgement of receipt is not received within this timeframe, then Promoter shall contact SIGA to determine if the source documents need to be re-sent.

4.3.

Case Documentation and Record Retention: Promoter shall document all Safety Reports received and reported to SIGA. Documentation shall include, where possible the name, address, and telephone number of the reporter, and whether consent has been given by the reporter to be re-contacted by SIGA. Promoter will maintain a record of each Safety Report received, including relevant source documents, and a record of each Safety Report reported to SIGA for a minimum period of ten (10) years after the expiration or termination of this Agreement and, if requested, will provide these and any other information requested by SIGA. Notwithstanding the aforementioned requirement, before Promoter destroys any Safety Reports and associated source documents, or training records, it will notify SIGA of its intention to do so and afford SIGA the opportunity to retain such records if it so wishes.

5.	Data Privacy:

In forwarding Safety Reports to SIGA, Promoter shall comply with all applicable privacy and data protection laws, rules and regulations on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of Personal Data and the free movement of such data. “Personal Data” means information that can be used by itself or in combination with other available information to identify a specific individual. The Promoter shall collect, use and disclose any Personal Data obtained in the course of performing the safety related activities under this Agreement solely for the purposes of complying with the regulatory obligations as described in this Agreement, or as otherwise required by law or by a court order. Promoter shall use electronic, physical, and other safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information to prevent any use or disclosure of Personal Data other than as provided for by this Agreement. Promoter will also take reasonable precautions to protect the Personal Data from alteration or destruction.

Promoter shall notify SIGA promptly of any accidental, unauthorized, or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, or disclosure of, or access to, the Personal Data (“Security Breach”), and take immediate steps to rectify any Security Breach.

Audit:

SIGA, or its authorized representatives, shall have the right, at its cost, with reasonable advance notice, during regular business hours, to audit the facility used by the Promoter in order to review the Promoter activities under this Exhibit including, but not limited to, any documents relevant to these activities, for compliance with the safety reporting requirements set out in this Exhibit. Where evidence of non-compliance is identified SIGA and Promoter will jointly discuss to determine appropriate corrective and preventive actions and Promoter will provide SIGA with regular reports on the completion status of the identified corrective and preventive actions.

SCHEDULE 8.2(b)
